Abstract:
People have used digital currencies to meet their online payment requirements in a more convenient, cheaper, and secure way. The currencies have been stored in digital wallets, where security is a significant challenge. In this paper, we propose a model that uses biometric methods to secure digital currencies within wallets. The proposed model improves both usability and security of payment transactions carried out with digital currencies, which are stored in wallets, by using fingerprints of users.
